Lang Bushin quickly climbed down the stairs and rushed out of the villa, shouting into his phone, "Wait a minute."

Lang Bushin stopped running, stood on the mud, and put the phone to his ear with some trembling.

"Gu Dongnan, are you still there?" Lang Bushin asked.

Gu Dongnan forced himself to suppress his urge to collapse, swallowed his saliva, and felt a pain in his throat.

"Lang Bushin, I'm here." Gu Dongnan said.

Even though Gu Dongnan tried hard to make his voice sound natural, Lang Bushin could still hear the sob that could not be concealed in his voice.

"What's wrong with you?" Lang Bushin asked tentatively.

Upon hearing this, Gu Dongnan felt his emotions suddenly drawn out, and all the grievances he felt wanted to pour out from his lips and teeth. Tears could not stop falling. Gu Dongnan tried to wipe them away with his sleeves in embarrassment, but they could not be wiped away cleanly.

Gu Dongnan opened his mouth several times wanting to say "I'm fine", but every time he opened his mouth he could only let out a few extremely suppressed sobs.

"Gu Dongnan, don't cry. What happened?" Lang Bushin felt as if his heart was being pulled, and worry surged in his stomach.

Gu Dongnan felt even more aggrieved, and the uncontrollable emotions surging in his heart like huge waves almost made him want to confess to Lang Bushin all the cold stares and humiliations he had experienced in the past few days.

Tell him that I don't want to come to the United States, don't want to be a so-called heir, don't want to be trampled into the mud by these chosen ones, don't want to be in fear every day, don't want to live under someone else's roof, and don't want to leave my friends.

But in the end, all he said was a broken "I'm sorry."

"What is there to be sorry about? I don't blame you. Well, actually I blamed you a little bit just now, but now I don't blame you anymore. Please stop crying. I can't blame you for crying."

"What's wrong with you? Are you being bullied? I heard that bullying is very serious in the United States. You can't let those foreigners bully you?" Lang Bushin said.

"Lang Bushin, I thought... I thought I would never be able to contact you again, I thought I had no friends left." Gu Dongnan's voice was filled with tears.

"I have taken the initiative to contact you. I was thinking that you didn't want to contact me. I am so happy that you are willing to continue to be friends with me." Lang Bushin said.

"I...I..." Gu Dongnan choked several times and was unable to speak.

"It's okay, just talk slowly, I'm always here. If you feel very aggrieved now, just cry for a while. I'll stay with you, and we'll talk after you've vented." Lang Bushin's tone was extremely gentle.

Gu Dongnan fell silent. For a moment, the only sounds on the phone were Gu Dongnan's broken sobs and sniffles. Every cry made Lang Bushin feel depressed.

Only after Gu Dongnan's emotions gradually stabilized and he slowly stopped sobbing did Lang Bushin try to speak.

"Do you feel better now?" Lang Xin asked.

"Yeah." Gu Dongnan's voice was still a little hoarse.

"Can I... ask you what happened? If it's not convenient to say, it's okay not to answer." Lang Bushin said.

Gu Dongnan was silent for a few breaths before speaking.

"I want to go home, but I can't." Gu Dongnan said as he sniffed.

Also, I want to see you.

"You haven't adapted to the foreign country yet, right? I heard from Teacher Xu that you immigrated there. Will you... return to China in the future?" Lang Bushin asked.

Before answering Lang Bushin's call, Gu Dongnan didn't know the answer, but now he knows it very well.

"I will, I will definitely go back." said Gu Dongnan.

"Okay, when you come back I'll take you to have hotpot with them. We had a delicious hotpot meal at this restaurant a few days ago." Lang Bushin said with a smile.

"Yeah." Gu Dongnan's voice was almost inaudible.

"It's true that it takes a long time to adapt to a foreign country. It's normal to miss home. My brother went to study in Germany. He cried every day for half a year and wanted to come back because there was nothing to eat there."

"By the way, you can't eat any of our own food, right? Do you want me to mail you some Lao Gan Ma or Shuanghui sausage?" Lang Bushin asked.

"I can't receive it." Gu Dongnan said.

"Why, you're in a boarding school and don't have express delivery?" Lang Bushin asked.

"Almost." Gu Dongnan replied.

"What happened when you called me yesterday? I really thought you had joined a pyramid scheme fraud organization." Lang Bushin asked.

"I was in class and completing my homework, so it was not convenient for me to answer the phone," Gu Dongnan explained.

Lang Bushin wanted to ask more, but Gu Dongnan spoke first.

"Lang Bushin, I'm sorry, whether it's about not joining the team, not adding you on WeChat, or not answering the phone at the agreed time this time."

"I'm sorry I broke my promise to you so many times."

"I'm really happy that you called me, thank you so much." Gu Dongnan's voice was choked with sobs again.

"Why are you being so sentimental? It makes me feel weird."

"Now you have my contact information, so you can call me to chat whenever you want. I don't have much to do all day anyway, so I can answer the phone at any time." Lang Bushin said.

"My phone can only receive calls in one direction, not make outgoing calls," Gu Dongnan explained.

"What? You're being a bit weird. Tell me the truth, do you really not need me to call the police for you or something?" Lang Bushin was surprised.

"No, it's not what you think. The study environment where I am now is very strict, so this is the case."

"If possible, can you call me occasionally when you are bored? I have three hours of break after 6 pm every day." Gu Dongnan said.

"Oh, so you mean I have to get up at eight or nine in the morning to call you every time? Can't we call you at night when you are sleeping?" Lang Bushin wailed.

"When you rest at night, you will be required to keep your mobile phone in your personal locker," Gu Dongnan explained.

"Okay then, as long as you don't find me annoying, I have no problem calling you every day to chat with you about gossip." Lang Bushin said.

"Okay." Gu Dongnan felt a warm current surge in his heart.

"Hey, let me tell you, I'm on a small island with other friends now. It's beautiful here, and there's a lot of seafood."

"The people you know include Gong Cheng, Brother Tao, Qiao Mu, and Teacher Xu. They are all here."

"When you return to China later, you can join us in any activities we have," Lang Bushin said.

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it." Gu Dongnan replied.

"Although you can't see the sea, I can let you hear the sound. Did you hear it? The sound of the waves is quite loud today, and there are many dead birds there, and the cackling is unpleasant to hear."

"Oh my god, that dead bird has pooped black shit on my white shirt." Lang Bushin screamed while dodging the shit falling from the sky.
